CAMDEN — Mayor Dana Redd and her fellow establishment Democrats have beaten a series of challenges from without their party in Tuesday’s primary elections.

According to unofficial election results posted Tuesday night the Camden County website, Redd bested challenger Theo Spencer, a former member of the city board of education, by 1,491 votes to 723 — a margin of nearly 2-1. She will face Republican Arnold Davis in November.

For the three at-large seats up for grabs on the city council, Democratic incumbents Marilyn Torres (1,690 votes) and current council vice president Curtis Jenkins (1,746) joined with newcomer Arthur Barclay (1,630) in winning their party’s nomination.

Barclay joined the Camden County Democrat Committee slate after Councilwoman Deborah Person-Polk declined to seek a second term.
